USB Debugging in Android is intended for development purposes only. You can use this development tool to copy data between your computer and your device, install applications on your device without notifications, and read log data. Not just that, it is also necessary for activities like rooting or installing custom ROMs on your device. Even if you are a non-developer, USB debugging will provide you with the level of freedom to access and control your device.

USB debugging is usually disabled by default on every Android phone and tablet, so as to avoid non-developer users to accidentally enable the mode and put their devices at risk. But it is suggested that you enable USB debugging on your Android device before you try any new mods or before you try any method where you would be required to connect your device to your computer.

We at Rewrite Tech have put together a quick tutorial on how to enable USB debugging on Android phones and tablets running Android 2.x, 4.0, 4.1 / 4.2 and above.
